Quantum Information Science will be a yearly conference focusing on the rapidly growing field of Quantum Information Processing. The primary focus of the conference will be on physical and theoretical aspects that arise in implementation of quantum information processing for computation or communication. The conference will bring together researchers from the diverse fields of physics, computer science, mathematics, chemistry, materials science, and engineering, with the common interest of increasing our understanding of how to formulate, manipulate, and process information using physical systems that operate on quantum mechanical principles.
